p/f step 1 really screwed over DOs. it was all we had to show we were just as good. i think the next 2 classes of DO derms could very well be the last as our previously DO only programs start taking MDs and MD programs continue to screen us out. < I mean now the emphasis will just be on USMLE Step 2 CK. Pass/Fail USMLE Step 1 just started in January and they'll match in 2023-2024. < I think the DO=MD is a social media construct and won't be surprised if PDs think so too. Sure maybe PCOM students but I have rotated at a few DO sites as an MD, it is definitely not equivalent lol
